Michael Smith now leads the Premier League after a superb win in Glasgow on night three, as former champion Jonny Clayton finally got off the mark. One nightly win and four game victories see the World Champ and World No.1 topping the table on seven points alongside Nathan Aspinall.
Early winners Gerwyn Price and Chris Dobey round out the top four ahead of Dimitri van den Bergh and Michael van Gerwen, who are both outside the play-off top four spots but on five points.
Jonny Clayton is off and running after a slow start with 2 points, leaving Peter Wright adrift at the foot of the table.
